6.2 Workmanship
6.2.1 Surface Preparation and Installation of Plaster Accessories
• Surfaces to receive cement plaster shall be cleaned of all projections, dust loose particles,
grease and other foreign matter. Plaster shall not be applied directly to
(a) Concrete or masonry surfaces that have been coated with bituminous compound, Surfaces
that have been painted or previously plastered.
(b) Before the plaster work is started, masonry surfaces shall be wetted thoroughly with fog
spray of clean water to produce a uniformly moist condition. Accessories shall be checked
carefully for alignment before work is started
(c) All Accessories shall be prepared and installed in accordance to approved Standard
Drawings
• All undercoats shall be scratched to form an adequate key for the next coat.
• Level Guides shall be provided up to required thickness as per approved Drawings.
• Plastering shall proceed only when the masonry block works are completed.

6.2.2 Plain face work

• For plain face plasterwork to exterior wall, finished thickness shall unless otherwise stated be
18mm in accordance to approved Drawing.

• For plain face plasterwork to Interior wall, finished thickness shall unless otherwise stated be
15mm in accordance to approved Drawing.

6.2.3 Application of Plaster

• Cement plaster shall be applied in accordance to Specification

• For Thickness as per approved Drawing, mortars will be used to make landmarks with
adequate size square and thickness as per requirement
• For external plaster, the plastering operations shall be started from the floor and carried
downwards.

[Concept for External Plastering]

• The internal plaster, the plastering may be started wherever the building frame, roofing and
brick work are ready.

• The rough plaster shall be started from top to bottom .It’s no needed smoothing surface but
the tight press up tile and allowed to dry sufficiently not rapidly.

• Curing shall be spraying with water as often as necessary to keep the plasterwork damp.
• Plaster work shall be level finished, plumbed, square and true within specified tolerance
without waves, cracks, blister pits, crazings, discolorations, projects or other imperfections.
Plaster work shall be formed carefully around angles contours, and well up to screeds. Special
care shall be taken to prevent sagging and consequent dropping of applications. There shall be
no visible junction marks in the finish coat where one day's work adjoint another.

• Cement plaster shall be applied in two coats

1) Brown Coat - Shall be applied with sufficient pressure to fill the grooves in hollow block
or concrete to prevent air pockets and secure a good bond. Brown coat shall be lightly
scratched.

2) Finish Coat - Shall not be applied until after brown coat has seasoned for 7 days. Just
before the application of the finish coat, brown coat shall again be evenly moistened with
fog spray. Finish coat shall be floated first to a true and even surface then troweled in a
manner that will force the sand particles down into the plaster. Plastered surfaces shall be
smooth and free from rough area, trowel marks, cracks and blemishes.
6.2.4 Smooth finished cement plaster
Finishing for Plaster Surface
The proportions of sand and cement shall be as specified and shall cover all irregularities,
undulations, depressions due to chasing etc. in the surface to be plastered. Straight edges shall be

freely used to ensure a perfectly even surface. The finished surface shall be true and even and
present uniform texture throughout and all joining marks shall be eliminated. All corners, edges
and angles shall be made perfectly to line, plane and plumb. All exposed angles and junctions of
walls, doors, windows, beams, slabs etc. shall be carefully finished so as to furnish a neat and
even surface.

Plastering items amongst all other things as described in various items also include

• Curing cement plaster by maintaining in a moist condition for one day following application.
Keep enclosed and fog spray (after initial set) as required to prevent dry-out. Preparation of
surfaces to receive the plaster, providing cement plaster of the specified average thickness and
proportions
• All labor, materials, scaffolding, use of tools and equipment to complete the plastering work
as per specifications.
• Curing as per Specification and requirement
• Cleaning the surface of doors, windows, floors or any other surfaces where plastering might
have splashed.
• Finishing the portion of plaster left above the terrazzo, plain cement tiles, iron or any type of
skirting work to be finished rounded or as directed by the Engineer separate operation after
laying of floor tiles skirting.

6.2.5 Plaster Accessories (shall be provided as per requirement and approved Drawing if
required)

• Strip metal lath centered over junctions of dissimilar backing materials and casing beads
terminations of plaster finish shall be installed.

• Corner and horizontal beads shall be level, vertical beads, plumb, straight and true, assuming
proper plaster thickness.

• Plaster Stop shall be used where called for or as required to stop plaster surface against a
dissimilar to form a neat and definite joint.

• At all control joint locations install back to back square nosed casing beads.
6.2.6 Cutting, Patching & Repairing

• Cut out & repair all damaged plaster and all fine cracks, pits, checks waves, blisters and other
defects which in the opinion of the Owner will impair the appearance and the life and
usefulness of the finish surfaces.

• All repairs shall be used approved material.

6.2.7 Housekeeping / Cleaning
